Great sounding speakers, Decent 720p HD screen, Smooth overall performance
Buttons a stretch to reach, Camera slow to focus in low-light, Lacks a standout feature
The HTC Desire 816 is big phone that's offers some of the best qualities of the One M8 in a cheaper but still attractive plastic body. It lacks a standout feature, but it's a good phone that won't let you down.Next, try our round-up of the best mobile pho...
Feels nice and premium, Decent camera, Twin front, facing speakers
Gloss means fingerprints on non, white versions, Sealed back means no battery access
After getting our eyes up close to the HTC Desire 816, we couldn't wait to go one step further and actually touch the damn thing. So that's exactly what we did, and there was nothing you could have done to stop us. In case you missed it, HTC announced its...
Sammanfattning: HTC has announced the Desire 816 at Mobile World Congress 2014 in Barcelona but while we weren't allowed to turn the device on, we did get our hands on it. The design is great, following a very similar style to the award-winning HTC One, but softened and...

Great price point, 4G LTE connectivity, Big, bright 5.5 inch screen
Phone performance suffers under load, Camera is a little lackluster, Build quality isn't as good as we expect from HTC

The HTC Desire 816 is a fantastic device when compared to its price tag. It's one of the best handsets we've used in the mid-range, although it does have some stiff competition. The Nexus 5, although it's about 6 months old now, is still a better optio...
Plenty of things should turn us off the Desire 816: it's made from plastic; the big screen has a low resolution; the camera is ordinary. But these seemingly mediocre parts add up to deliver an experience that is complete. The Desire 816 has character, and...
Big screen without a big price; Nice screen, even if it lacks a Full HD resolution; Excellent 4G speeds; Decent battery life;
Mediocre system performance has speed issues; Buttons are hard to reach for moist people, with controls at the top of the left edge; Screen won't switch on when swiped in similar ways at standby compared to the HTC One (M8); SIM card and microSD cover rea
HTC's attempt to make a budget phablet doesn't quite nail it, with a device that doesn't feel bad, but offers a performance that certainly doesn't match what you might expect out of it.At a little less than $400, the Desire 816 is a solid choice for anyon...
The HTC Desire 816's plastic body is well built. The brilliant 5.5-inch HD display has excellent viewing angles, and the quad-core processor runs smoothly, with hardly any lag
The glossy plastic rear is a fingerprint magnet, which is especially noticeable on the darker models. The lack of a removable battery is disappointing, given its relatively small capacity
The HTC Desire 816's combination of solid design and quality performance strikes all the right chords to make it a compelling phone for its price....
